1. STARTING (See Fig. 3)

(1)Open the fuel cock. (See Fig. 3-q)

(2)Turn the STOP SWITCH to the position “ I ” (ON). (See Fig. 3-w)

(3)Set the speed control lever 1/3 of the way towards the high speed position.

(See Fig. 3-e)

(4)Close the choke lever. (See Fig. 3-r)

■If the engine is cold or the ambient temperature is low, close the choke lever fully.

■If the engine is warm or the ambient temperature is high, open the choke lever half- way, or keep it fully open.

(5)Pull the starter handle slowly until resistance is felt. This is the “compression” point. Return the handle to its original position and pull swiftly.

Do not pull out the rope all the way. After starting the engine, allow the starter handle to return to its original position while still holding the handle.(See Fig. 3-t)

(6)After starting the engine, gradually open choke by turning the choke lever and finally keep it fully opened. Do not fully open the choke lever immediately when the engine is cold or the ambient temperature is low, because the engine may stop.(See Fig. 3-y)

2. RUNNING (See Fig. 4)

(1)After the engine starts, set the speed control lever at the low speed position (L) and warm it up without load for a few minutes.

(See Fig. 4-q)

(2)Gradually move the speed control lever toward the high speed position (H) and set it at the required engine speed.

(See Fig. 4-w)

■Whenever high speed operation is not required, slow the engine down (idle) by moving the speed control lever to save fuel and extend engine life.

3. STOPPING (See Fig. 5)

(1)Set the speed control lever at the low speed position and allow the engine to run at low speed for 1 or 2 minutes before stopping. (See Fig. 5-q)

(2)Turn the STOP SWITCH counterclockwise to the position “ ” (OFF). (See Fig. 5-w)

(3)Close the fuel cock. (See Fig. 5-e)

(4)Pull the starter handle slowly and return the handle to its original position when resistance is felt. This operation is necessary to prevent outside moist air from intruding into the combustion chamber. (See Fig. 5-r)

※STOPPING ENGINE

WITH THE FUEL COCK
